Android app - how to create new route?
-
Hi. I recently became a member of MRA with Gold subscription and I find it brilliant for my navigation needs to use with my Garmin Zumo XT, with Trip Planner function.
Mostly I use Chrome on my Windows computer to create new routes and modify exiting, and then I open the MRA app on my mobile phone to export it to Zumo XT through Garmin Drive. But sometimes I would need to create new route when I am on the go, using my Samsung android tablet. I don't like to use Chrome to do this, because on Android you cannot run Chrome in full screen and the top address pane uses too much screen. So I use MRA for Android, but I don't have any option for creating new routes. There is a button for "Destination" or "Round Trip", but there I cannot create route just a "where to" navigation. There is also an icon (drop and +) with MRA Routeplanner on the Andorid app, that is the same icon as the icon on the webpage for creating the new route, but it is somehow linked with Navigation Next, to which I don't have paid subscription and therefore the button doesn't work.So how does one actually create a new route on Android MRA app?
(my current workaround is to always have few empty/dummy routes created through webpage and use MRA Android app to only modify it)

I strongly suggest you go to myrouteapp.com/support and have a look at the manual for the app. It is too difficult to explain how to create and edit routes in the app. You will save yourself a ton of frustration by reviewing the manuals.

@Boštjan-Kreutz The only thing you need if you don’t have a subscription to MRA Navigation and therefore also don’t have that button in the app, is a browser that meets your expectations and with which you can create routes in Routelab on your tablet, just as you are used to doing on your desktop. If you also have a BT mouse with you, then you have everything you need. I can’t make that choice for you.
